Frequently Asked Questions
How many pins does the TFM-149-32-H-D-A-P-TR have, and how are they arranged?
The TFM-149-32-H-D-A-P-TR is a dual-row terminal strip with 98 pins total, arranged in 2 rows of 49 contacts at a 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch. This high-density configuration supports complex signal routing in space-constrained PCB designs used in defense, telecom, and embedded computing.
What contact pitch does the TFM-149-32-H-D-A-P-TR use, and why does it matter for PCB layout?
The TFM-149-32-H-D-A-P-TR uses a 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) contact pitch, which is half the standard 2.54 mm pitch, allowing engineers to achieve 2x the pin density in the same board area. This is critical for compact designs where 98 signals must be routed in a minimal PCB footprint, such as mezzanine cards and backplane systems.
Is the TFM-149-32-H-D-A-P-TR suitable for automated SMT assembly in production environments?
Yes, the TFM-149-32-H-D-A-P-TR is packaged in tape-and-reel (TR) format, making it fully compatible with automated SMT pick-and-place assembly lines. The reel packaging supports high-volume production runs efficiently, reducing manual handling and enabling consistent placement accuracy for the 98-pin fine-pitch connector.
What types of applications benefit most from the SAMTEC Tiger Eye TFM-149-32-H-D-A-P-TR connector?
This connector excels in applications requiring reliable, high-density board-to-board connections under demanding conditions, including military electronics, industrial control systems, and telecommunications equipment. Its Tiger Eye contact design maintains reliable electrical contact at the 0.050 inch pitch even under mechanical stress, vibration, and thermal cycling across a wide temperature range.
